The Supermarket: a fun and educational experience.
This week, the children from the dining hall participated in a fun activity called “The Supermarket.” During the activity, the little ones had the opportunity to choose foods from different categories, represented in a simulated supermarket that included both healthy and less healthy options.
With a basket in hand, each child selected products and explained their choices, reflecting on which foods were beneficial for their growth and development. This activity not only promoted learning about nutrition but also encouraged critical thinking and the ability to make conscious decisions about their diet.
Strengthening Youth Leadership
The young people from the community leadership group participated in a dynamic activity focused on strengthening their teamwork and conflict resolution skills. Through various practical activities, the participants learned strategies to manage differences constructively and work collaboratively. This experience not only provided them with tools to face challenges but also reinforced the importance of communication and mutual respect in the development of their leadership.
Discovering a World of Colors
During this session, the children participated in a dynamic activity designed to help them identify foods and strengthen their memory and language skills. By randomly selecting a color, the children named as many foods as possible corresponding to that color, also describing their nutritional properties. This activity not only allowed them to learn about the benefits of fruits and vegetables of different colors but also stimulated their ability to remember and express their knowledge in words.
